This is what Republicans want. A fighter. Thanks for spreading the word!
Oh, no! Not Tancredo! Please, Tom, don't run!!
Yes, Immoderatus, it appears that the political equivalent of wrestling stars putting on phony displays of pretend fighting is what the Republican base wants. They certainly aren't interested in any pols who might do reality based work toward any of their goals because that would involve compromise and deal making and they'd rather die than compromise or even accept legislation based on their own think tanks' ideas if that would mean giving Obama and the Dems any progress to point to.
Reality in the form of demographics will be happy to oblige on that score going forward. And it's so interesting that Marco Rubio is now a Democratic (What a slip up. It's always supposed to be Democrat no ic.) leader according to Tanc. I would have thought a party switch of that magnitude would have been all over the media. If true, glad he's seen the light and left the dark side.
Amen Moderatus. We sure as hell don't need any of that calm, disciplined leadership based on the will of the people. What about the will of the Tanc ? We need daily outrage and no results. Onward !
The wettest of Wetbacks is a better American than Tanc's prividledged white butt. The tiresome thing is that the retoric Tanc uses aginst Latin immigrants is exactly the same as that was used aginst his immigrant forebears.
I love me some good Tommy ranting. This is how he will win the Republican primary.
Go, Tommy, go!
I am unclear.
Net immigration is now zero. A combination of boarder security, aggressive deportation by the Obama administration and weak construction industry (now strengthening has depressed migration to basically zero.
In fact fruit is rotting in the fields because the more agressive border policy has stopped casual seasonal cross border migration completely (no sense coming unless you plan to stay for the long haul).
Anti-illegal imigration forces are actually anti brown immigrant: legal or illegal. They don't seem to care about people from Canada.
To end "illegal immigration" we'd have to consistently enforce immigration laws, especially with regards to punishing employers. Perhaps some of the social conservatives support this, but I don't see the GOP business constituency exactly eager to do so–they want the cheap labor.
And it's particularly hypocritical coming from someone whose swarthy forebears were considered inherently inferior. Put this together with his fondness for the support he gets from Aryan type white supremacists and I can't help but think there must be a healthy dose of self loathing there.
I can imagine Tanc dreaming of waking up as tall, blonde, blue eyed and buff as a model for one of those old Nazi propaganda superior race posters. Instead the poor guy can't escape the mirror that must tell him the sad truth every morning: In a crowd of "those" people, nobody would single him out as looking too white to fit in and nobody would swoon over his "superior race" physique.
Perhaps he looks in the mirror and thinks, … damnit all to hell, I'm the living proof that they were right about my ancestors genetic inferiorities … ???
Tom Tancredo is entitled to his opinion. He will not be the gubernatorial nominee.
Maybe not for the GOP, but that's not saying he won't still run…..
bwahahahah…exactly.
It gets tricky- there is a sore loser law, yes?
I think you are wrong.
Given the choice between Tommy (a man of strong beliefs and a champion of the white man) and Scotty (huh? who is he?), the typical Republican primary voter is going to go with the Tanc.
Either way, are there enough scared old white people votes for either of them to have a fighting chance against a sane candidate?
no
And less every single day while more young voters of various colors turn 18.
Meanwhile, what passes for high-level discussion in the Mind of Tancredo is (1) advocating the nuclear bombing of Mecca in response to another terrorist attack, (2) trying to get a teenage honor student deported, and (3) calling Miami a "third world city."
Ah yes, the old "Amnesty" argument. People continue to come here under the table because there's employers who will hire them. If consistently enforce the laws against hiring undocumented labor, the numbers will go down. However, the price of many things will go up.
Businesses want the cheap labor, customers don't want to pay more for their goods, so we only do a half-assed job enforcing the immigration laws most of the time.
I just hope the Tanc 'n Scotty comedy show is as funny to listen to as these two:
